ShakeAlert Earthquake Early WarningProgress and Status Doug GivenUSGS Earthquake Early Warning Coordinator • Primary Collaborators • USGS Given, D., Cochran, E., Oppenheimer, D. • State of California (Cal OES, CGS) Johnson, M., Parrish, J. • Caltech Heaton, T., Hauksson, E. • UC Berkeley Allen, R., Hellweg, P., Neuhauser, D. • U. of Washington Vidale, J., Bodin, P. • Swiss Seismological Service, ETHClinton, J., Behr, Y. • Moore Foundation Chandler, V., Koch, N. CISN Steering Cmte. Meeting Oct. 10, 2014
ShakeAlert Plan Partners plan to complete & operate a the ShakeAlert EEW system to… • Issue public warningsfor large earthquakes and… • …send warning parameters to government and private sector users… • …as soon as ShakeAlert meets quality and reliability standards on a region by region basis • Authors • USGS - Given, D., Cochran, E. • CIT - Heaton, T., Hauksson, E. • UCB - Allen, R., Hellweg, P. • UW - Vidale, J., Bodin, P.

CEEWS: Cal OES – Planning ProcessCA Code 8587.8: State Implementation Plan by 1/1/2016 “On the road toward a comprehensive earthquake early warning system, we will face some challenges. Fortunately the California Integrated Seismic Network provides us with the foundation for the system we envision.” - Mark Ghilarducci, Director, Cal OES
ShakeAlert System Architecture • ShakeAlert in Californiais built on CISN • Leverages… • Stations • Telecommunications • Hardened centers • Software (EW, AQMS) • Expertise • Management structures • A new CISN product
ShakeAlert: Major System Components Sensor Networks User Actions Processing Alert Creation Field telemetry Alert Delivery
CEEWS/ShakeAlert Public - Private Partnership Model Waveforms Parameters Detections RT Data Value-added & Redistribution Services Direct Users Public Alert Systems (e.g. IPAWS) Partner Networks (seismic + GPS) Core System CEEWS/ShakeAlert Processing CISN Sensors (seismic + GPS) Red = public Blue= private Alert Streams • Alert streams • Alerts – simple, MMI threshold exceeded • Data feeds – per second, what earth is doing
Investments in ShakeAlert(Through FY14) • Moore Foundation R&D (2012-2014) • Caltech $1,996,888 • UC Berkeley $2,040,889 • Univ. of Washington $1,848,351 • USGS $ 594,406 • TOTAL$6,480,534 USGS Earthquake Program (2002-2015) • External coops R & D for EEW • Phase I & II (2002-2012) $2,093,851 • Phase III (2012-2015) $1,575,000 • ARRA California (2009-2011) $4,426,110 • - Network equipment upgrades • MultiHazards Project (2008-2014) $2,342,150 TOTAL$10,437,111 • City of Los Angeles – UASI funding • To Caltech FY 14 (SCSN) $5,600,000-125 new & upgraded SCSN stations- 41 RT-GPS stations- System infrastructure upgrades • Future Federal Funding? • Base USGS budget includes $850,000 for EEW • Both House and Senate markups for FY15 include $5 million for EEW Total = $ 22.5 million
ShakeAlert: Estimated Cost = + = + • New and upgraded seismic & GPS stations • New and upgraded field telemetry • System testing, certification and performance monitoring • Personnel for maintenance and operation (hardware & software) • Continued R & D • User supportand training Sensor Networks User Actions Processing Alert Creation Field telemetry Alert Delivery
